Publisher's summary

A collection of eight tales ranging from horror to superhero, science fiction to postapocalyptic, that examine the darker aspects of the world.

"Bread and Circuses": This weary warrior has been fighting battles for a very long time.

"Dental Plan": Robert's teeth are falling out left and right, sometimes only minutes apart. What is happening to him?

"Footprints in the Butter": When the creatures showed up, it was only the beginning of Paul's waking nightmare.

"Last Year's Hero": Battledriver Linnea is the best of the best, but now is she too old to come back for one more season?

"Pedals": Once the gasoline ran out, the only way for the wasteland wanderers to get around was on bicycles.

"Tracks": Being a hacker isn't so glamorous.

"Boy Scout": When the most powerful superhero has had enough, what chance does the world stand?

"1001001": All sentients seek something greater than themselves, even robots.
